PITCHER HEALY HEARD FROM.
He Declares that lie Is Not Dissatisfied with
Indianapolis-What Sowders Will Do.

John Healy has written to President Brush,
stating that one day he did tell ex-Manager
Fogel that he would not sign with the Indianap-
oils club for the coming season. He thinks any
one posted in the laws of the League would not
notice such thing, and, furthermore, had he
known Fogel was the Sporting Times, he
would not have written to him as he after
wards did, saying he did not intend to remain
with the Hoosiers. Healy tells Mr.. Brush that
he believes the club will be stronger season,
and that the directors are doing the best to have
it so. 1.-The INDIANAPOLIS directors" he writes,
have treated me all right, and the city is full
of friendly people and basel ball enthusiasts who
would go crazy if there was a winning club
there. have been paid all money due me.
and got little extra for extra work. L am
perfectly satisfied with the club and the city.
If | sign a contract for the season of 49, it will
be for the purpose of doing my utmost for the
welfare of the club. don't want the people in
under the impression that you know how L felt
in regard TO the club regardless of the newspa-
per reports. All the ball players are rev1vlng
the old chestnuts in writing to the manager or
president of a club that they are in fine trim,
and intend to play the game of their lives next
season. 1 am in good health but to that /
will let you judge when you see me-"
Manager Seele of the Omaha club, left for home
yesterday without making any definite arrange
thinks that the club there ought not to pay
much, if anything, for his release. He says he
is successful among the Northwestern players,
but that he would be only an experiment in the
League. Boston has offered him a bonus of
$500, and liberal salary.

Fire I'm the Wyandor Block.

Yesterday afternoon the fire department was
called to the Wyandot Block, where a dense
smoke was issuing from the ore-room occ upied
by Charles Mutchett g. Son, fruit-dealers. The
FIRE soon extingushed. but not until $500
damages had been wrought upon Mr.. Mu.chett's
stock. The fire originated among some rubbish
in the cellar, and worked it's way through the
floor into the store-room. The damage to the
building will probably not amount to more than
$50. The loss is covered by insurance in the
Franklin Fire Insurance Company.

sure which says that all nations shall serve
Him. We may well believe, therefore, that
this world will continue to take an interest in
His advent until all nations, and kindreds, and
tribes, and tongues shall bow down before HIM
and worship at His feet
The influence of the Saviour's advent is CO.
extensive with the history of His church; and
that history is long, long story, which cannot
be told to-day. can only hint at two or three
points that lie on the surface of the subject and
which this day we call Christmas suggests.
Its influence over childhood will be readily ad-
mitted. The Holy Child is a model for all chill
dren even as His holy mother is model for all
mothers. What child in Christendom is not or
would not be. interested in, and influenced by
the story of Christ's BIRTH To the children,
Chrstmas-day is the gaddest, happiest day of
ali the year. and it is 3d. because it commemo-
rates Saviours birth. Oae might say that ir
is, pre- eminently. the children's day The poor
and the rich have an equal interest in it. The
poorest child on earth to day is no poorer than
was the child Jesus. The hum blest cradle Is no
more humble than the mauger in which
Jesus lay. He was very poor. On the other
hand. the richest child earth to-day is pau
per compared with the child Jesus. For while
His cradle was a manger. He was. at tho same
time. the Son of God. He very rich,
unspeakably rich. for He had at His disposal
all the riches of heaven. But though He was
rich, yet for our sakes He became Door. that we,
through His poverty. might be made rich Hence.
around the cradle of Christ the children may
see, we all may see, the evidences at once,
of His infinite riches and OF His diresr poverty.
AS the children receive their gifts, and they
bestow them at this season. let them not forget
why. or in honor of whom, all this should be
done; and let them link in their minds all these
gifts with that unsreakable gift which God be-
slowed upon men, when, for their redemption,
He gave His only begotteu Son.
The influence OF Christs advent in the matter
of promoting beusvolence and brotherly love is
of it's marked characteristics. Is not this
the time, of all times in the year, when the rich
and the poor meet together, and when both are
